7:38 am
insurance for the two extra years. >> we have to keep saying this over and over again. we don't have a medicare problem. we have a health care cost problem. this is not a medicare problem. it's because our health care system is dysfunctional, and prices are too high and costs are out of control because companies make money by jacking up prices and not allowing us to negotiate. >> >> stephanie: right. and an increase in all costs, higher out of pocket health care costs, and the cbo projected an increase in the number of uninsured, and that possibility becomes more real with states like texas saying they are not going to accept the medicaid expansion. >> medicare is more efficient than private insurance. they are more satisfied with their medicare coverage.

8:04 am
and up to what they were under bill clinton. 600,000 new businesses were started, god forbid that should happen again. but the groundhog day element of this, stephanie, is this. last year at this time, the president wanted to extent the payroll tax cut. the republicans stamped their feet and wanted tax cut for the wealthy. and the president stood his ground, and they undid this by unanimous consent right before christmas. that's what is going to happen this time. >> stephanie: again, they say the president is not being clear. >> obama: just to be clear, i'm not going to sign any package that presents rates going up for folks at the top 2%.
8:05 am
>> he wasn't clear enough. he didn't say which country. [ laughter ] >> he has to be much more precise. >> stephanie: jay carney excooed it again. >> a deal by republicans that rates on the top 2% the wealthiest americans, have to rise. there is no deal without that acknowledgment, and without a concrete mathematically sound proposal. >> stephanie: oh, my god, i'm reading the chyron right now. the white house has only offered a joke according to boehner. representative are you reading anything new >> what is going on here is that the republicans understand that they are going to have to put over a trillion dollars of revenue into this agreement, and they are coming to terms with how to get the votes within their conference to do it.
8:06 am
and i honestly think that that will happen about two weeks from now. i'm focused more on the taxes and less on the jobs. the jobs numbers is good but not good enough yet. part of this deal has to be jobs right now. more transportation construction. tax cuts for small businesses if they create jobs extension of unemployment benefits for those who are looking very hard for work. that's what we ran on. >> stephanie: yeah. >> we ran on creating jobs for everybody. and i want to insist on that as part of this deal. >> stephanie: it is the lowest unemployment level in four years. we have dropped to 7.7, added twice as many jobs as expected and yet they want to go back to the policies where we were
8:07 am
losing 700,000 jobs a month -- >> fact number 1 is that the president promised to get unemployment down below 8% if we passed the stimulus bill. it is down below 8% from almost 11. the economy has created over 7 million new jobs since the job-killing health care bill was signed. by the way over a million of those in the medical field. >> stephanie: and i can hear the air quotes in your voice as heard on fox news. >> yeah. and the third is that barack obama did win the presidential election. he got 51% of the vote very nearly. by some appropriate coincidence, mitt romney got 47% of the vote. the president got 332 electoral
8:08 am
votes. he won. and all of the rest of this is the republicans playing out various stages of grief and loss. >> stephanie: yeah, exactly. >> and i think it's coming right before the end of the calendar year. >> stephanie: why does the medicare eligibility age have to be on the table? it seems like a bad idea. it's an idea that paul ryan embraced. obviously nancy pelosi has said she doesn't like the idea. as you just said we won. why do we need to trade that this time? >> i don't think there is going to be any trade. there is concern about medicare's long-term fiscal health because people are living longer. and the actuarial tables are a little bit out of whack on this so it's something i think you can evaluate if it is done in a
8:09 am
fair way but we already agreed to $1.2 trillion of spending cuts that are now a law in july of 2011. and there was no revenue in that deal. and i think to get distracted by the spending side we're taking the bait if we do that. >> stephanie: uh-huh. representative you are saying -- first of all is there going to be a vote on the 98% of us getting a tax cut, is there going to be a vote on that? >> sure. i think what will happen is that in some form the present tax rates will stay in effect on a long-term basis. now what procedural mechanism these guys eventually come up with i don't know, but that's what the result is going to be. >> stephanie: all right. well it's all good news. thank you for updating us. >> it's great talking to you. >> stephanie: you too.
